    Thanks for sharing your experience with outposting and rare resources. I have discovered a good self check in my outposting. On my home planet, I'll setup my station to remote demand before I head out. That way, once I do find my resources and they are going into the remote station, immediately I can see a ship coming to collect. Saved myself a few trips back because I forgot to check my stations.

    Don't know if it's a bug, but you can do the factorio thing and raise land up under pumps and they keep producing. You can't put the lake back, but if you don't mind a permanent fixture of pumps you can never rearrange, you can cover a lake in pumps.

    CORRECTION: The star type does not seem to affect the minerals found in that system. I just confirmed in my current save that organic crystals, spiniform stalagmite crystals, kimberlite, and optical grating crystals occur in all types/colors of stars. Neutron stars and black holes are an exception however, being the only place you seem to be able to get unipolar magnets. Neutron stars and black holes also had exactly the same rare ore types, but I don't know if that is consistent since I only have one of each in my current save. (Those were Fire Ice, Fractal Silicon, Optical Grating Crystal, and Unipolar Magnets).

      Really? 6 optical crystals for a Casimir versus 1 titanium crystal, which is much easier to make. Just combine titanium ingots and organic crystals (which are super plentiful on oceanic jungles)
      Using the optical grating crystals for photon combiners cuts out 2 entire production lines, and lets you use your stone for the damn titanium glass to make plane filters

  • @Gemoron
    @Gemoron 3 года назад +4

    I like to process some of the base materials on planet. E.g. Copper ore is never used as copper ore, so I often offer the copper ore to an unpowered station, add a small smelter rack powered by green power and also offer the processed material. that way I can simply order a better material and partly save on shipping space which saves warpers and a ton of energy. Also, materials will come in quicker.
    E.G. you usually use Unipolar magnets only for the particle containers. one shipment of procesed containers contain 10 shipments of unipolar magnets and 2 shipments of copper (ore or ingot)
    Energy requirement is an argument though, but later oon it is not a problem withartificial suns, carging stations or just tons of wind power.
    Another comparison: 1 shipment of electromagnetic turbines (the green ones) is 10 iron and 2 copper shipments, but 1 turbine/s costs 8-11 MW power
    1 processor shipment are 2 iron shipments, 8 silicon ore shipments, 3 copper shipments for ~8MW per 1/s production.
    something easily done is making titanium crystals out of organic crystals. they aren't needed anywhere else.

      @jetah50 3 года назад

      i understand that and i've argued it as well but...
      it's much easier to have a planet which all of your smelting and processing so you only need to planet hop with 4 items (stellar drones, miners, belts, wind). if you do the processing on the planet, then you need everything else.
      also when the resources are exhausted you can just claim the few items and move on.
      i wanted to setup my lava planet, in my starter system, for manufacturing but i may just change that to just harvest.

  • @eddiedavison8163
    @eddiedavison8163 3 года назад +3

    Why do you set your interstellar logistics stations on home planets to demand and set such low storage for things like ore? It’d probably be better to set that higher so your drones can pull from it more between vessels trips. Makes sense for things like warpers but not ore.

      at the end of the video? Because if i left them default we would of waited 30seconds for them to do a round trip for the first item, then another 30 seconds for the second item then the 3rd and 4th etc... the idea was to demonstrate that all the items we had just made outposts for were available for import

    I am a bit confused on warp cores. Building them is no problem, but how do you set up a distribution network to get them to your logistics stations? Do you have a dedicated logistics station per planet to request warp cores which distributes (by belt or otherwise) the warp cores to all the other stations on the planet that are doing actual work?

    • @TxThundr
      @TxThundr 3 года назад +4

      He's only using the Vessels from his home planet to transfer materials. Therefore, only his home planet Interstellar stations need the warp cores. The logistics vessels will take 2 warp cores with them when they head out - 1 for the trip to the remote planet and 1 for the return trip back to the home planet. If he put Vessels in the remote planets then he would also have to worry about powering them up and supplying them with warp cores. Instead he leaves the remote stations bare bones which simplifies the overall logistics.

    isn't more space efficient to process the raw materials on site and then import through interstellar logistic the refined product?

    • @MiseRaen
      @MiseRaen 3 года назад +3

      But it would require a decent amount of infrastructure to be able to power smelters/assemblers required for processing. Once you centralized most of your processing to certain key planets then its just a matter of shipping the raw materials to your factory planets.

    • @tomwallen7271
      @tomwallen7271 3 года назад +1

      I think it depends on what you're producing and the density of it. Something like Oil is already as dense as it gets, as 2 crude oil turns into 2 refined oil, so you don't get a density benefit from refining on site. Same with fire ice, 2 turns into 2 graphene (and you'd need to set up a production chain to convert it. The only one that is seriously benefitting from that kind of processing is the Optical Crystals which turn into casimir crystals at a 6-1 ratio (assuming you have hydrogen and graphene on planet for the recipe).
      The only thing I process before transport is things like Silicon Ore which goes 2-1 in density to an ingot with just a simple smelt. Unipolar Magnets would work the same turning into particle containments at a 5-1 ratio (with a bit of copper, which should be no problem).
